Adding more commentary for -c/--show_convergence option, to explain how
the convergence is defined.

Before:
    -c, --show_convergence
                          show convergence details

Now:
    -c, --show_convergence
                          convergence is reached when each process \
(all its threads) is running on a single NUMA node.
